Ashen Lurker WIP

[Direfury]

A while back I decided to make a basic creep for an Ashenvale or Felwood setting, soon after I came up with the Ashen Lurker, which resembles the result of a Murloc and Nightsaber making babies.

I'm thinking of doing some editting to the spines on the Lurker's back, but i'm not really sure at this point where I should take this model.

Any suggestions are definetly welcome here.

 

[BlinkBoy]

perhaps you should modify the arms to make them look more piercing.

 

[Lord_T]

Agreed, Claws would make a fine addition to this model, everything else looks sweet.

 

[Ghost765]

looks like a panther-gnoll.

 

[Direfury]

"If Murlocs and Nightsabers made babies". Scary images, decent model concept.

I'll get right to those claws, guys, anything else?

 

[Ghost765]

i feel that it needs something. i cant put my finger on it yet though...

 

[Direfury]

Yeah, I had the same feeling, that's why i'm looking for suggestions here.

 

[BrotherDog]

Something about it reminds me a little of Sugarman. Give him 2 more arms and a long tongue and there you'd have it. ;;D

I like the idea. I can hardly wait see the way you finnish it.

 

[Kimbo]

the face is far too ugly and out of place. The overall detail is lacking and the backspines are facing the wrong way

 

[Direfury]

No, the spines are facing the right way, but i'll look into everything else.

 

[Hawkwing]

I agree with Kim, the spines should be pointing the other way.

 

[Direfury]

Felhound
'nuff said.

 

[Hawkwing]

Felhound seems right to me. And if you're referring to the horns they wouldn't be effected by gravity too much because of the material they're made of. While with the texture you've used on your model makes them look flimsy like fur.

 

[donut3.5]

On the felhound, the spikes go back towards his tail, besides the horns.
And as many others have noted, your spikes should go back as well.

[Direfury]

I'm talking about the ones on the hounds shoulders, I'll fix up the others in the morning & show another pic.

EDIT:
I couldn't get on my computer for a while, but i'll get right on those extra details soon.

 

[Direfury]

Having some issues with claws, it's pretty hard to get something good added to those flipper-hands stuck on the base model.

If you've got any ideas, i've got tons of time to listen.

 

[Hawkwing]

There we go, that looks much better!

 

[Direfury]

Yeah but I'm still out've ideas for claws & such.

 

[Hawkwing]

Well they need more width, imo.

 

[Direfury]

Well I managed to get claws on, but i'm not sure whether or not I should simply make them huge and Ghoulish.

 

[Hawkwing]

Well definitely bigger.

 

[donut3.5]

I still don't like the spikes on his back, but to each his own, i suppose.

[Direfury]

So wadya suggest I do about that?

 

[BrotherDog]

Either use OrcShaman claws or maybe go with with big clawed hands like the Nerubians. Maybe even the Ent hands could work. Long, thin, clawed fingers give an extra creepy look if that's what you're going for.

 

[Direfury]

Nerubian claws'd look alot better, but i'm not so sure I want to add a bunch've unnecessary geosets, it'd be a bit harder to accomplish by just editting those damned hands, though.
